I disagree. When we stop pointing out the lies that the lying liar tells, we are complicit in him getting away with the lies. A shitload of people aren’t really paying much attention. Those people might believe his lies if they’re not seeing anybody pointing out that what he’s saying is a lie.
Honestly, I’d rather see it pointed out even more what a fucking liar he is. I want the media to stop saying “falsely states” and other bullshit soft language, and then let it go to fucking trial and beat him if he tries to sue for slander/libel. It’s a fucking disgrace that they’re not only choosing to not do this, but they’re settling when he claims that they’re factual reporting on him is defamation or election interference. But honestly, at this point, I won’t be satisfied until he’s in a stockade and getting pelted by overpriced eggs.
I never said stop reporting, I said stop acting surprised. I don’t want them to stop talking about it, I just want them to be honest about it and say “Trump lied about this today” instead of “the Trump white house thinks…”
I just want them to call a spade a spade instead of acting like it’s not
Ah, I misinterpreted your phrasing. “We have to stop reporting on Trump lies like they’re shocking” sounded like “nobody is shocked by his lies, so there’s no point in bothering to report on it.” You meant “stop feigning surprise in your reporting of his lies.” I fully agree with you.

Yes, that is exactly what I meant. Cheers
